Top 5 for In & Out

Most. Wonderful. Things. About In N Out.


5. They sweep up junk, like all the time! A guy came and swept under Silas tonight while we were still eating! Wow. And he didn't have a martyred or carefully neutral expression on his face either. He took our extra trash too.

4. Protein Style! This is awesome for celiac people, or if you're just trying to count points for Weight Watchers. I can get a really good burger for 8 points! How workable is that! Carl's Junior: 14 to 22 points. Plus their fries and shakes are awesome too.

3. Our mother's day dinner: $11.96. Enough said, right?

2. Verses! Okay, I know a single verse reference isn't going to slap anyone into heaven, but hey, if I'm gonna buy some French Fries I'd just as soon have John 3:16 on it. I've heard this practice belittled, but I see it like this: If In&Out printed book and page numbers of great quotes from Harry Potter or Twilight, can you imagine how those fans would love it? In&Out probably wouldn't gain any new readers, it'd just be an inside joke for people who were already fans. So as a fan of the Bible, I'm happy to be in on it.

And, the number one reason I love In & Out..... drumrolll.......

1. The small lids fit on the water cups! WOW! For those of you who don't get water at fast food places - usually it's a little clear plastic cup that holds about a tablespoon and a half of water and is way too small for any of the lids. That's all well and good (if you don't mind hogging the fountain for 5 minutes to quench your thirst) unless you have little kids who need a lid and a straw. At In&Out, they fixed it! Lid and straw, no problem! I could cry.

Happy Mother's Day.

Haha Awesome! That's so true about water cups too. Usually I get lemonade, but the other day I stopped by the food place in Target and got stuck with the "tablespoon and a half" cup. :D

I didn't see this before coming to visit in July but getting my first "Animal Style" double double yesterday and seeing the Bible verse, and the cleaning and sweeping going on, I was impressed too.
